"This wasn’t your typical short fast paced twisted thriller that is KMods mo. I found it to be very haunting and chilling mixed with a side of romantic tension. <br/><br/>It’s told from two time periods, which I’m a huge fan of multiple time period books. I did find that some sections was very repetitive, as the then and now told the same story. <br/>With two big twists in the story, one was obvious from the beginning and the other was completely unexpected. <br/><br/>All in all, it’s an enjoyable haunted house type read. 3.5 ⭐️s<br/><br/><br/>Thank you Kiersten Modglin for my complimentary earc."
